Terms of Use

These terms apply whenever you use Cobb County Residents Directory. By continuing to use it, you agree to these conditions. If you disagree, stop using the service.

1. Nature of the Service

Cobb County Residents Directory is an independent, privately operated reference. It describes public rolls, indexes, and historical collections maintained for Cobb County, Georgia, and links to their custodians. It neither hosts government records nor represents any office or court.


2. Rules for Using This Site

Use the site only for lawful purposes. You may not use it, or anything found through it, to:

  • Stalk, harass, intimidate, threaten, or harm any person
  • Locate someone protected by a restraining or protective order
  • Commit identity theft or fraud
  • Make FCRA-regulated decisions (credit, employment, tenant, insurance)
  • Scrape, copy, or republish the site's content at scale
  • Interfere with the site's operation or security

3. We Are Not a Consumer Reporting Agency

This site is not a consumer reporting agency as defined by the Fair Credit Reporting Act (15 U.S.C. § 1681 et seq.). Nothing here, and nothing any linked search tool returns, is a consumer report, and none of it may be used to judge eligibility for credit, employment, housing, insurance, or any other FCRA-covered purpose.


4. Outside Services

County portals, state resources, and sponsored search services operate under their own terms and privacy rules. Their content, uptime, charges, and data handling remain outside our control.


5. Warranty Disclaimer

The service is offered "as is" and "as available" without warranties. We do not guarantee that its contents are complete, accurate, or current, or that an external portal will remain available or return an error-free result.


6. Limits on Our Liability

To the maximum extent the law allows, we are not liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or special damages arising from use of this site or any linked resource, including decisions made from records found through it.


7. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless the operators of this site from any claim or demand, including reasonable attorneys' fees, arising from your misuse of the site or violation of these terms.


8. Intellectual Property

The original text, design, logo, and layout of this site are protected by copyright. Linking to any page and quoting brief excerpts with attribution is welcome; republishing full pages or systematically copying content is not.


9. Changes to These Terms

We may update these terms by posting a new version here. Continued use after a change means acceptance.


10. Cutting Off Access

We may block or restrict any user who violates these terms or abuses the site, at our discretion and without notice.


11. Georgia Law

Georgia law governs these terms without applying conflict-of-law principles. Public access to Georgia agency records is addressed by the Georgia Open Records Act, O.C.G.A. § 50-18-70 et seq., but that statute does not make this private reference a public agency or records custodian.


12. Severability

If any part of these terms proves unenforceable, the rest stays in force.
